SAVE THE DATES: Wyoming Council of Catholic Women will hold their annual convention Thursday through Saturday, September 9, 10 & 11, 2021. The convention will be held at Little America, Cheyenne, Wyoming! In Pursuit of Healing and Holiness through Jesus and Mary is the theme. The Convention has been extended to include a one-day Healing Retreat and more time in prayer and fellowship. We need to know by June 20th, 2021 how many individuals plan to attend. Little America must have a firm idea of how many will attend so they can plan for space requirements. If you plan to attend, we respectfully request your response by contacting Rosemary Barrett 307-640-4311 or Jan McGuire 307-631-3507.
With God’s grace we pray for a spiritual, healing, and meaningful retreat and convention.
